O cérebro é um órgão que serve como o centro do sistema nervoso em todos os vertebrados e na maioria dos invertebrados. Ele consiste de tecido nervoso e está tipicamente localizado na cabeça (cefalização), geralmente próximo a órgãos para sentidos especiais como visão, audição e olfação. Sendo o órgão mais especializado, é responsável por receber informações do sistema nervoso sensorial, processar essas informações e a coordenação do controle motor e do sistema endócrino.
